life in ancient gods

Chapter 1 A New Beginning

Su Pingan opened his eyes from his drowsiness.

I saw a woman wearing white clothes, with red and swollen eyes with bloodshot eyes and a trace of tears hidden in the corners of her eyes.

The Shenhao system is being bound...

10%, 20%, 50%, 80%, 100%
"Ding, congratulations to the host, the Shenhao system, the binding is successful."

A light blue translucent properties panel comes to mind.

Host: Su Ping'an

Status: extremely bad
Skill: Scouting

Wealth: 20 copper coins [money given away does not count]

[All interpretation rights belong to the system. 】

"Shenhao system? What the hell?"

The light blue translucent attribute panel that suddenly appeared in his mind made him feel very strange.

"Ding, host, your first task is to spend 20 copper coins. After completing the task, you will be promoted to VIP2 and increase your wealth by 100 copper coins."

"The task is to spend money? Are you spending more money?"

Su Pingan turned his eyes slightly, suppressed the doubts in his heart, and turned his head to look at the woman who was crying silently beside him, "Who is she? She is dressed so strangely."

He involuntarily used the survey technique.

A light blue translucent attribute panel floated in midair in front of him.

Name: Lee

Attributes: Constitution 8, Strength 16, Dexterity 13
Status: tired
At this time, Li Shi tilted her head and saw Su Ping'an's slender fingers moved slightly, and her eyes were staring at her.

A trace of joy that had not been seen for a long time appeared in her pupils, and she opened her dry lips and said something in a trembling voice.

It seems to be a kind of dialect, which Su Ping'an doesn't quite understand.

"%#, no @%#$..." Mrs. Li said something, and at the same time tidied up a corner of the yellowed quilt covering Su Ping'an's body.

Su Pingan had a splitting headache, lying on the couch, rolling his eyes, looking around, blinking, a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes, and thought to himself: "...Am I in a hospital ward? But the hospital ward is too simple It’s like a log house with a wooden and stone structure, and the bed is still so hard..."

He wanted to sit up, but he didn't have the strength to do so.

The new wind was like a knife, and the howling cold wind continued to rage through the gaps in the wooden house.

Li's clothes were a little thin, and she was sitting on the side of the couch trembling, with a sad look on her face, and suddenly began to cry again, wiping her tears, a tear fell on the edge of the couch, as if dripping through an abyss of memory.

Su Ping'an felt more and more strange. The Li Shi who was sitting next to him in front of him was dressed in a strange way. He didn't know him at all. Why was he crying so sadly?
Suddenly, a white light flashed through his mind.

It seemed that some incomplete memories that did not belong to him slowly emerged in his mind.

Goofy, idiot...

Mother Li, younger sister Su Pingyue...

The news of his father's death in battle, and some meager pensions...

The army was ambushed and suffered heavy losses. Most of the adult men in the village died in this battle...

half an hour later
There was the sound of brisk footsteps, getting closer, and the door was pushed open.

A soft and beautiful girl about thirteen or fourteen passed through the main room and walked into the back room, panting and choked up, and said: "...Mother, Mr. Li from the next village thinks he has little money...Brother, are you awake?!"

The girl's voice was weak with a hint of sadness, she said with a sob, she turned her head and glanced at Su Ping'an who was lying on the couch, her eyes as clear as water met Su Ping'an's gaze, a gleam of joy appeared, and she ran to the couch forward.

"Brother, you're really awake. That's great. Daddy is gone. If you... woo woo woo..." As she spoke, the girl began to cry again, with crystal tears filling her eyes.

"Pingyue, your elder brother just woke up and is still very weak. The firewood at home is gone. Mother went to the mountain to cut some firewood, so I can take care of your elder brother."

As Li said, she walked through the main room and went to the kitchen to pick up a green bamboo basket. There was a rusty ax in the basket. She wrapped her old cotton coat tightly and walked out of the house.

It was the twelfth lunar month of winter, and there were snowflakes outside the house.

Little snowflakes, falling slowly, fill the entire sky, and dye the small village into a hazy snow-white.

Li felt every snowflake falling on her body, and wrapped herself in a slightly thin linen and cotton coat.

She clenched her wrinkled hands, pursed her lips, and walked towards the winding Montenegro against the cold wind and snow.

"Auntie, are you feeling better?" A fifteen- or sixteen-year-old boy was wearing a blue cotton robe with several holes in it, worn black cotton boots on his feet, and was walking on the white snow. Huhu, who was still breathing white gas from the earthen pot, ran to Li's side and asked while exhaling white gas.

Mrs. Li turned sideways with the basket on her shoulders, and glanced at the boy, "You're a fool, just woke up in Ping An, you..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw the boy running towards her house with the crock pot in hand.

"Papa, peace, peace..."

"crunch..."

"Sister Pingyue, I brought some chicken soup for your eldest brother to replenish his health..." The second idiot stood outside the door, looking hard into the room.

Pingyue's black and white eyes glanced at the steaming earthen pot, pouted her mouth, said coldly, "Where did you steal the chicken, my elder brother won't eat it What about things! Hmph!"

With a snort, he was about to close the wooden door.

"Hey..., don't..." The second fool held the wooden door and said hastily: "Sister Pingyue, you have wronged me this time. I heard that Ping An was ill, so I went to the mountain to catch a wild pheasant, so I didn't steal it. Well, if you don’t believe me, try it..." He said, and opened the lid of the earthen pot that was missing a corner.

Pingyue looked down at the chicken in the crockpot. The smell of meat made her mouth water. She raised her eyes to see the sincerity on the face of the second fool, and said softly: "Okay, trust you once, come in quickly..."

The second fool put the lid on the earthen pot, slapped off the snowflakes on his body, turned sideways, and got into the house.

"Brother, idiot, I'm here to see you..." Pingyue closed the door, and a biting cold wind blew outside again, she lifted a wooden stick beside her to hold the door.

In the back room, Su Ping'an, who was lying on the couch and dozed off, had just thought a lot.

He was originally a modern person in the 21st century, a college student who was still studying, his girlfriend broke up with him, and he became single again.

He remembers that after breaking up with his girlfriend, he rescued an elementary school student who ran a red light on the road, but he was knocked over by a big truck.

think for a long time
From his incomplete memory, he only knew that this was Sujia Village, and the next door was Lijia Village.

Due to the war and the locust plague, there was no harvest in the fields, and the grain merchants took the opportunity to raise the price of grain, and the price of grain was one day, causing famine in many places.

He understands the local dialect, but he doesn't know if he can speak it. He needs some time to organize the language.

When he heard the words Erlianzi coming from outside the house, he lay on the couch with his head tilted, looked outside, and some incomplete information appeared in his mind, "Idiot, Su Mingcheng, a playmate from the same village, his parents died early, Orphans, relying on stealing chickens and dogs, and the villagers donate alms so that they will not starve to death..."

Er Lengzi walked through the main room and came to the back room, and saw Su Ping'an lying on the couch tightly wrapped in a quilt.

He put the earthen jar in his hand on a wooden table beside him, "Ping An, you scared my brother, I killed a pheasant on the mountain to make up for you, what do you think my brother treats you?! "

It was cold in the room, the second fool went to the couch and rubbed his hands.

Su Pingan looked at the fool with a hippie smile, a complex look flashed in his pupils, the corner of his mouth moved slightly, and he blurted out: "Brother, I'm sorry...the 20 Wen is pheasant money, you take it."

As he spoke, Su Pingan took out 20 Wen from his sleeve and handed it to the fool.

"This... how is this so embarrassing, this wild pheasant is meant to make up for you, how can I charge you money..." the second fool scratched his head, staring at the 20 Wen, embarrassed.

"Take it, it's not easy for you." Su Ping'an smiled slightly, and whispered, "This is the private money I saved, don't tell my mother and little sister."

"Hey, then I won't be polite." The second fool took the 20 Wen from Su Ping'an, smiled embarrassedly, and put it in his arms.

"Ding, the host will be the first to complete the task, be promoted to VIP2, and get 100 coins."

"Your next task is to spend 100 coins. After completing the task, you will get a Shenhao VIP lucky draw."

Su Pingan watched the fool put away the money with joy on his face, and smiled lightly, "Have you eaten yet?"

Er Lengzi patted his stomach, "I've eaten it. I cut half of the pheasant meat and roasted it, and cooked the other half into soup. I brought it here specially for you, hehe."

At this time, Pingyue walked over from the kitchen, holding a celadon bowl in her hand with a wooden spoon in it.

She walked to the table, filled half a bowl of chicken soup from the earthen pot, and came to the bed, "Brother, come, have a bowl of hot chicken soup while it's hot...You idiot, help your brother up."

As he spoke, he tilted his head and glanced at the second fool.

Pingyue called him by his nickname and had a commanding tone.

The second fool seemed normal, not angry, he said with a smile: "That's good."

A spoonful of hot pheasant soup dripped into the belly, and I felt warm and comfortable all over my body, and my mouth was full of fragrance.

After a while, Su Ping'an finished drinking spoon by spoon under the service of his younger sister Pingyue.

The sense of powerlessness subsided, I stretched my shoulders, and my body regained strength.

"Brother, do you want more?" Pingyue pursed her lips and said softly.

"No, Yue'er, why don't you have a bowl too. The second fool's cooking skills are good, and the pheasant he cooked is very delicious. By the way, I will save a bowl for my mother too." Su Ping'an said.

Pingyue nodded, she ran to find Langzhong early in the morning, and she hasn't eaten until now, she is really hungry.

She saw in the kitchen just now that the rice vat at home was almost bottomed out, and the remaining rice would be eaten in three days.

The second stupefied sighed: "Hey, I heard that Shaolin Temple recruits many disciples to save all sentient beings. The most important thing is to have something to eat, safe, what do you think?..."

"Going to be a monk?" Su Ping'an had a black line on his forehead, pretending to have a thoughtful look on his face.

Pingyue, who was filling a bowl with pheasant soup from an earthen jar, heard that the second fool bewitched her elder brother to become a monk.

She turned around and gave the second fool a hard look, and said to Su Pingan: "Brother, that's not going to work, mother said you are the only seedling in the family, and you want to marry a wife."

Er Lengzi scratched the back of his head and smiled mischievously.

A hint of surprise flashed in Su Ping'an's eyes. Unexpectedly, Pingyue knew a lot at such a young age?
However, having said that, women in ancient times were married at the age of thirteen or fourteen.

Moreover, it is normal for children from poor families to head home early, and girls to learn to wash, cook, and do housework early.

"...Well, I don't think it's appropriate. It doesn't matter whether you marry a wife or not. The main reason is that there is no man in the family. The soldiers are in a panic. I really don't feel relieved..." Su Pingan lowered his head and pretended to think for a while, and said seriously.

Hearing this, Pingyue nodded again and again, feeling that the elder brother is very different from the past, the elder brother in the past was submissive, but now the elder brother seems to have become more stable and responsible.

"Could it be because of illness." Pingyue stared at Su Ping'an, her eyes turned slightly, thinking strangely.

A sly look flashed in the eyes of Er Lengzi, and he smiled and said: "This is easy to handle, anyway, I am a widow, at worst I will not be a monk. I married Pingyue, and there will be a man in the family."

"Bah, you think beautifully!" Pingyue said with a disgusted expression.

With a black line on his forehead, Su Pingan glanced at the fool, a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said in his heart: "... Heh, this fool is not simple..."
